Finished Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Future Redeemed.

Apparently I was near the very end when I posted last week, I was expecting some kind of warning before point of no return, but they didn't mention it. It's possible they mentioned it when giving me the quest but I forgot about that.

Overall, really enjoyed the game, but it didn't provide much new information about the worlds, or what happened to all the characters from first two games, though there were implied hints. I wanted more details, but as it is, even without playing it, I don't think it would have made too much of a difference.

Apparently, there's a hint in the end / post credit scene, that possibly connects it with Xenogear saga or Xenoblade Chronicles X, I haven't played either so no idea, just saw it when trying to see what people thought of the ending. I think the story ended well enough, they should move to something new, but I trust the devs.

Played Guns, Gore, and Cannoli, it's a side scrolling run and gun (like beat 'em up, but with guns), though I played it more like walk and gun.

Setting is 1920 Mafia in Zombie apocalypse, voice acting is nice, and gameplay is fun. Finished it in 2-3 days. There's a sequel out too, where they have apparently improved a few things. Will definitely try it out (eventually).

Played quite a bit of Rise of the Tomb Raider, but didn't make much progress as I was focusing on side content. Did the Baba Yaga DLC content (part of 20th anniversary version on PS), also explored some optional tombs and did optional side quests.

Going to start Medieval Dynasty on PS5, with a friend this weekend. I have always wanted to play some crafting / survival game, and one of my friends was interested in playing this too, and since it's on sale right now, we decided to get it and give it a try.

No idea if I'll actually enjoy this or not though, on paper (and videos) it looks good, so, let's see.

Would I play this for next 3 months? or never touch it again after this weekend? Tune in next week, to find out!

So, what about all you? What have you been playing?

The ending of Future Redeemed links the games to:

SpoilerXeno Saga - My best guess is a remake of those three games, maybe packaged as one. I'd love it, since I'm only missing Saga.

As for future games, I think they confirmed moving away from the combat formula, which implies moving away from the Klaus story. But it could be something new set in world as shown at the end of XB 3.

Anyways, still on Witcher 3. It's a never ending game, but I didn't play much at all these past to weeks. I did continue the main story, but only by 1 or 2 quests. I just got the mask from Yen in Skellige.

This weekend, I've got a lot of time so there will be much more progress, I think

Yeah, I think thry mentioned that Klaus' story has finished. Can't wait tomsee their next game.

Hehe, Witcher 3 is pretty long! Enjoy!
